“We are very pleased with the outcome of the auction,” said Shuman. “The property is only a few minutes from downtown, and very secluded, so the interest was quite high.”

The auction was attended by roughly 50 people with 15 registered bidders. An oil company supply executive from Dallas ultimately purchased all 2,198 acres for an average of $1,819 per acre. The Texas property was offered in conjunction with Hortenstine Ranch Company in its entirety or in tracts ranging from 31 to 1,054 acres. It encompasses more than five miles of Trinity River frontage, offers great views of the Dallas skyline, and nearly 2,000 acres are in a flood zone that cannot be developed.

“Both the seller and the buyer were pleased with how the auction process worked,” said Shuman. “At Hall and Hall Auctions, we're able to bring our unique partners approach to the auction side of our business—but there are many more reasons that set our program apart.”

Over the past few months, Hall and Hall Auctions has marketed more than 34,000 acres near San Angelo, TX as well as 28,000+ acres in Eastern Oklahoma.
